Great sweaters, blouses, fabulous jeans, boho style dresses and even sequined-black-tie -cocktail -party dresses. I bought the cutest pair of slouchy dress pants in the store today. 12/20/21. They are a fabulous snakeskin print; black and dark green in color with a pinch-pleat waistline, matching belt and tapered legs. I zoned in on them right away from afar and expected to see a large price tag, but they were only $39. A great price for such a unique pair of cocktail trousers. The salesgirl was such a big help and was very attentive but also allowed me to shop and browse at my leisure without bothering me. I also liked how the merchandise was spread out and easy to shop. And, the plus sizes were on a different color hanger than regular sizes, making it easier for customers to find their style and sizes, what a genius idea. I will definitely be back to shop next time we are in town.

The selection is incredibly well curated, with the perfect mix of vintage, western wear, and unique accessories. Over the years, my husband has picked up some of his all-time favorite beanies here, and I've found everything from vintage Levi's to a fabulous furry purple jacket that still gets compliments. Every visit feels like a treasure hunt. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the owner is truly one of my favorite people. You can tell how much care and personality goes into the shop. If you're in Oceanside and love vintage, don't miss Ransack. It's a gem and one of our favorite stops every time we're in town.

Cool atmosphere at first. The customer service ruined it all…read more My friends and I came in to look around and see what the store had to offer in terms of clothes and antiques. While we were browsing, the lady at the front kept hovering over us as if we were trying to steal something. It was obvious enough that we actually started laughing about it. Combined with how incredibly expensive everything was, we decided not to buy anything. We did use the photo booth a couple of times, which has about a 3 and 1/2 minute processing time. While waiting for our photos to print and looking through them together, we sat on the couch. There was no one else in the store, and we weren't being loud, rude, or causing any problems. Despite that, we were rudely told the couch was only for customers trying on clothes. Didn't know the couch was a dressing room. It felt unnecessary considering we were simply waiting for the photos we had just paid for and were about to leave. The store has a cool concept, but the customer service made it feel unwelcoming. Greet every customer with kindness. Not everyone who walks into your store is out to get you.

Swirl is very active on Insta, sharing outfit inspo & new items daily. I haven't been to their other locations yet but glad to have this one so close to pop in regularly. Customer service is fast & helpful, and it's clear the owner is all about shaping a good experience at Swirl.

Bought 4 months ago in March and i know I've seen one in store recently but when I finally had someone suggest I return it-I was told the store policy changed to 4 months and I was over and it was not returnable! I swear I never do this and got turned away at Nordstroms after making special trip there. Not even store credit. Told to sell on some app I never heard. I'm 67 and don't really want to add more frustration to this. Disappointed.

I was trying to find an item I had seen at the SM location and practically searched the whole store and couldn't find it. I also couldn't find any staff that could help. I finally made my way to the fitting room and asked the lady there for assistance, and she was of no help at all. So, besides lack of help, the selection they offer here is not as great as the other locations either. Overall, if you're looking for basic items, and know where they are located and won't need any help, this is decent otherwise, go to the other locations

I bought several items including the coffee towels for gifts. The first few days I was here I had a hard time making it in to the store before they closed.....Before Covid they used to close at 6 but now it must be 5pm. Anyway I made it in and I love all the new items. This is my second year of coming to Carlsbad for an Extended stay during the summer & while I'm here I make a point of shopping small & local. Face mask are required, hand sanitizer is located at the front door for your use.....They are Cleaning between customers...... The staff is always supreme!

I don't understand how hard it is to say "Welcome" or "Hi". Do I not look like your typical client? They seem to judge whom they're going to engage with and not engage. From other reviews on here this seems to be on ongoing issue with the employees. It's all about the TRAINING!!! I like the clothes but I just can't see giving money to this establishment when the employees can't engage. I walked in yesterday and there were two employees who never once said one thing to me. I walked around picked up something I was going to buy and then I put it back because no one spoke to me. This has not been the first time no one has spoken to me. I walked out and down the street and made purchases at two other boutiques because they were friendly and engaging. Please teach your staff how to be kind and welcoming to all. It's really not that hard. The women working here don't seem to care about customer service or they don't know how to engage with customers because they haven't been trained. I still have a gift card to use here and it will be awhile before I decide to use it or give it to someone else.

They have lots of summer clothing, dresses, skirts, shirts, some men's stuff. Didn't even know they had a back patio until I saw the photos on this site. Will have to try it. The shop is really small and if there are more than 5 people inside it's hard to move around., But I found a great pastel, tie-dyed maxi skirt for $28 and grabbed it. Lots of tshirts here too. If you forgot all your vacation clothes at home, you could re-do your wardrobe in this store.
